BACKGROUND: In-hospital cardiac arrest is a major burden to public health, which affects patient safety. Although traditional track-and-trigger systems are used to predict cardiac arrest early, they have limitations, with low sensitivity and high fal...
OBJECTIVE: Evaluate potential for data mining auditing techniques to identify hidden concepts in diagnostic knowledge bases (KB). Improving completeness enhances KB applications such as differential diagnosis and patient case simulation.
This research aims to address the problem of discriminating benign cysts from malignant masses in breast ultrasound (BUS) images based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). The biopsy-proven benchmarking dataset was built from 1422 patient cases c...
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a sleep disorder caused due to interruption of breathing resulting in insufficient oxygen to the human body and brain. If the OSA is detected and treated at an early stage the possibility of severe health impairment c...
The intuitionistic fuzzy set, as a generation of fuzzy set, can express and process uncertainty much better. Distance measures between intuitionistic fuzzy sets are used to indicate the difference degree between the information carried by intuitionis...
BACKGROUND & AIMS: The benefit of colonoscopy for colorectal cancer prevention depends on the adenoma detection rate (ADR). The ADR should reflect the adenoma prevalence rate, which is estimated to be higher than 50% in the screening-age population. ...

A computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system requires detection, segmentation, and classification in one framework to assist radiologists efficiently in an accurate diagnosis. In this paper, a completely integrated CAD system is proposed to screen digital...
PURPOSE: Global indices of standard automated perimerty are insensitive to localized losses, while point-wise indices are sensitive but highly variable. Region-wise indices sit in between. This study introduces a machine learning-based index for glau...
